Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2020152609A2] A sensor structure (10) is used for obtaining data from a moving stream of particulate material (11), with a light source (56) providing a focussed light beam (64) to illuminate the particles (11) and a light receiver (54) receiving light reflected off the illuminated particles (11) and transmitting the light to an optical sensor. The light from the illuminated particles (11) in a small analysis zone (65) is analysed during short intervals, so that light from only one particle is analysed at a time. The light from a large number of individual particles (11) is analysed separately and an analysis result is calculated from the analysis of the light reflected from the multiple individual particles (11).
